Joe Pine is an internationally recognized author, speaker, and advisor, best known for The Experience Economy and his latest work, The Transformation Economy. In this episode, Joe explains why the market is finally ready—25 years later—for the shift to the transformation economy. He walks through the evolution of economic value, from commodities to goods, services, experiences, and now transformations, and makes the case that businesses must stop charging for inputs and start charging for outcomes. Joe introduces the four spheres of transformation—Health & Wellbeing, Wealth & Prosperity, Knowledge & Wisdom, and Purpose & Meaning—and argues that the true role of business is human flourishing: helping people become who they're meant to be. Profit isn't the goal; it's the scorecard. We also explore "encapsulation"—preparation, reflection, and integration—and why it's the key to turning experiences into lasting change. Joe breaks down why outcomes-based pricing is both the hardest shift and the biggest opportunity for transformation-driven companies. In this conversation, you'll learn how to spot transformation opportunities in your business, move beyond time-based pricing, and align what you charge with what customers actually value.

Watch this Episode on YouTube | Joe Pine on You're Charging for the Wrong Thing with Joe Pine https://bit.ly/TLP-499 Key Takeaways [04:04] Joe explains why the world is finally ready for the transformation economy after 25 years of people asking when he'd write this book. [09:11] The four spheres of transformation: Health & Wellbeing, Wealth & Prosperity, Knowledge & Wisdom, and Purpose & Meaning—and why almost every business can find themselves in at least one. [12:59] The difference between fitness centers (charging for time as an experience) versus personal trainers (instilling discipline for transformation). [17:42] Why companies must eventually align what they charge for with what customers value—and how this drives the shift to outcomes-based pricing. [22:09] Joe introduces "invitational transformations"—experiences that invite people to transform their identity (like the Guinness Storehouse or Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library). [26:38] Human flourishing defined: the extent to which people are who they're meant to be. This is the raison d'être of business. [34:09] The concept of encapsulation: Preparation (before the experience), Reflection (after), and Integration (ongoing)—the framework that turns experiences into transformations. [35:59] How Joe wrote the book on Substack, getting real-time feedback from subscribers that fundamentally changed key frameworks in the book. [44:18] Joe's vision for transformation businesses: charge for demonstrated outcomes, foster human flourishing, and recognize that profits measure how well you help people flourish—not the end goal itself. [46:46] And remember..."The greatest danger in times of turbulence is not the turbulence; it is to act with yesterday's logic. Transformation begins with a change in mindset." — Peter Drucker Quotable Quotes "You are what you charge for. If you charge for undifferentiated stuff, you're in the commodities business. If you charge for demonstrated outcomes that your customers achieve, you're in the transformation business." "Eventually you have to align what you charge for with what your customers value. Let me say it again: Eventually you have to align what you charge for with what your customers value." "Fostering human flourishing is the raison d'être of business, period. That's why business exists—to help people flourish." "Human flourishing is the extent to which people are who they're meant to be." "The irony is of course that you may be offering a transformation guarantee, but that's exactly what you can't actually do. You can't guarantee a transformation. However, the best way to get it to happen is to offer a guarantee." "Profits are never the end. They're always the measurement by which you achieve the ends of human flourishing."

Patricia Roos was a sociology professor at Rutgers University when she lost her 25-year-old son, Alex, to a heroin overdose. In the aftermath of that loss, she redirected her life's work by examining the systemic forces that fuel addiction and the shortcomings of how the nation responds to the overdose crisis, particularly the heavy reliance on the criminal justice system.Her new book, Surviving Alex: A Mother's Story of Love, Loss, and Addiction, weaves together her personal story and professional expertise. Through it, she examines how stigma, inequity and a lack of compassion within our health care and treatment systems can lead to devastating outcomes — and how we can begin to do better.In this episode of Grieving Out Loud, Patricia shares her journey as both a mother and a researcher, what she learned while desperately trying to help her son, and how she's using her voice to call for systemic change and a more compassionate response to substance use disorder.If you enjoyed this episode, check out the following:He Saw a Gap in Addiction Treatment and Decided to Do Something About ItInvestigative Reporter Uncovers Abuse and Profit in Rehab Programs‘The ugliest, biggest elephant in the room:' Confronting addiction as a diseaseA mother's urgent message on mental health and addictionSend a textBehind every number is a story of a life cut short, a family shattered, and a community devastated.They were...daughterssonsmothersfathersfriendswiveshusbandscousinsboyfriendsgirlfriends.They were More Than Just A Number.

In this special fireside chat, Shannon Jamail, Alison, and Erin pull back the curtain on the evolving energy of the Retreat Industry Forum — and why this year's attendee profile looks different than ever before. What started as a vision to elevate the retreat industry is quickly becoming a high-level gathering of experienced retreat leaders, business owners, venue operators, and industry professionals ready to scale smarter and connect strategically. The trio discusses: The shift toward seasoned retreat professionals attending Why the Forum is not a beginner workshop — it's a growth accelerator The power of investing in events (and the real ROI that follows) High-caliber speakers with proven track records The importance of treating retreats like a business Technology, AI, and SEO shaping the future of the industry The synergy and collaboration behind the Forum itself Early planning conversations for 2027 If you're serious about growing your retreat business and surrounding yourself with leaders who are playing at a higher level - this episode will show you why the Retreat Industry Forum is different. Key Takeaways The Retreat Industry Forum is attracting experienced, growth-focused retreat leaders. High-level networking creates exponential business returns.

Everyone is talking about how AI will change your business. Almost nobody is asking whether it actually should. In this episode, Blaine breaks down what he's seeing across the professional world. Appraisers, agents, coaches, and business owners chasing every new AI tool that hits their feed. Subscriptions pile up. Hours disappear. Stress increases. Profit does not. Blaine is not anti AI. He uses it daily. He believes it is one of the most powerful tools we have ever had access to. But most tools on the market right now fall into three categories: time wasters, solutions looking for problems, and margin thieves. So how do you separate real leverage from shiny distraction? Blaine introduces the AMPLIFY Framework, a seven filter test to evaluate any AI tool before you spend another dollar or another hour. A is Autopsy. What dies when this lives? M is Multiplier. Does this give you life or steal it? P is Paycheck. Show me the money in 90 days. L is Love. Will your clients thank you? I is Investment. Are you building equity or renting a trick? F is Friction. Can you implement it today? Y is Yes. Can you say yes with full integrity? This is not just about software. It is about protecting your human advantage in a world racing toward automation. If a tool does not amplify your judgment, relationships, expertise, and impact, it is not leverage. It is noise. Stop chasing shiny objects. Start building something real. If you want to use AI without losing your edge, this episode is for you.

If you're stuck around £100–£2k a month on Etsy and your current plan is“maybe I just need more products”…we need to talk.In this episode, I'm breaking down my 2026 Etsy profit playbook and how six-figure Etsy shops are actually built - quietly, calmly, and without burning yourself into the ground.This isn't hustle advice.It's structure, clarity, and knowing what actually moves the needle.We'll cover:

Telecommunications company Spark's mobile and broadband businesses delivered some revenue growth over the first half, contributing to an 83 percent increase in net profit. The company is reporting a net profit after tax of $64 million, compared with $35 million from a year ago. Spark CEO Jolie Hodson says the company's still recovering, but there's clear signs things could go up. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Fletcher Building says it's not out of the woods yet, but their financial situation is improving. It recorded an $11 million half-year loss - down from $134 million the year before. Earnings are out of the red at $45 million, compared to $-88 million the year before. Chief executive Andrew Reding says they'll take a while to get back on track.

Send a textWhat does it really take to build a profitable business while raising a family—and still like your life? Jennifer joins us with a story that starts in a delivery room and a bakery build-out and grows into a 20-year company she eventually sold. We pull back the curtain on the nine pillars she now uses to help women prioritize profit, protect their time, and grow a business that can thrive without burning them out.We get practical fast: how to price with data instead of emotion, track time to uncover hidden labor, and guard your gross margins so there's money left for subscriptions, overhead, and your paycheck. Jennifer explains why simplifying offers can unlock growth—like trimming 72 SKUs down to 16—and how a focused niche turns you from forgettable to top-of-mind. You'll hear the difference between selling “cookies” and selling “gifts,” and how a photographer quadrupled revenue by choosing real estate over everything else.Community becomes a strategy, not a nice-to-have. Jennifer lays out the Fab Five advisory circle—an industry peer, a seasoned mentor, an operator outside your field, a younger spark, and a trusted confidant—so you have wisdom, innovation, and emotional safety on speed dial. On the sales front, we reframe follow-up as care, not pressure, with simple email cadences, value-first touch points, and even handwritten notes that cut through the noise. Along the way we talk boundaries, presence at home, and getting kids involved so the lessons of grit and service become a family legacy.If you're a mom founder aiming for profit, simplicity, and staying power, this conversation hands you a blueprint: niche clearly, price bravely, follow up consistently, and let your community lift you.

Sometimes the best conversations start with a simple question—and then another, and another. This week, we put Kate Morgan, Jaci Russo, and Ted Wolf in the hot seat and fire away: Are you hiring? Are you finding impressive job candidates? What was the worst job you ever had—and did you learn anything from it? Have you bought crypto? If you had $10,000 a month to spend on marketing, where would it go? Should a marketing agency ever turn its marketing over to another marketing agency? What's holding you back? What's the simplest thing you've never quite figured out how to do?None of these are trick questions, but they don't necessarily have easy answers. Kate admits she's never opened her accounting software. Jaci says one of the best things that ever happened to her was getting fired. Ted recounts losing 40 percent of his company's revenue in a single weekend. Running a business means living with trade-offs, uncertainty, and the occasional punch to the gut. As Jaci reminds us, it usually works out—one way or another. But that doesn't mean the answers are simple when you're in the middle of it.

Okay - I'll admit it. My bookkeeper used to send me a Profit and Loss (P&L) statement for my practice every time we met - and I barely looked at it.Not proud of that.But I blew it off because I didn't really understand HOW to use it, what the various segments meant, or how to pull information from those long columns of numbers that I could actually use.Well - not any more. Today, I go over those suckers with a highlighter and a pen, and I keep the latest one on my desk so I can refer back to it when I make decisions.That's what a P&L can do for you. And today, we are going to teach you how to do the same thing. :)In this episode, I'm joined by Randall Avery — a former corporate finance professional who now helps mental health professionals and other practice owners understand their numbers. With his help, we broke this stuff down in a way that actually makes sense.No jargon. No shame. No such thing as a dumb question.Just clarity - and I think you'll love that.In this episode, you'll learn:What a P&L actually is (and what it isn't.)How to break down revenue sources in your practice.

Ai for fun and proffit Using AI for Fun and Profit | Episode 588 Good morning. It's 37 degrees on Valentine's Day. Hopefully you remembered to plan something for your significant other — unlike me, who accidentally requested off the 15th instead of the 14th. Today we're talking about using AI — ChatGPT, Suno, and others — for fun and profit. You don't have to use one specific tool. They all have strengths and weaknesses. They're only getting better. And if you're not learning how to use them, you're falling behind. This episode is about how I actually use AI in real life — for the podcast, for creativity, for fitness tracking, for health data, and even for analyzing DNA. And yes — without AI, this podcast wouldn't be happening daily. Transcription(base) AI Theme Songs and Creative Leverage For years I used “Blitzkrieg Bop” by the Ramones as intro music. YouTube hated it. Copyright flags. Monetization issues. Headaches. Now I use Suno AI to generate custom theme songs. I can spin up a holiday-specific intro or a tools-themed metal jam in minutes. That simply wasn't possible before unless you had real money to hire an artist. And it's not just podcast music. Back in the day, you'd make a mixtape for someone you liked. Cassette. Burned CD. Carefully curated songs. Now? I can write my wife a custom bubblegum-themed romantic parody song in under a minute while sitting at work. That level of creative leverage didn't exist before. How AI Runs This Podcast Behind the Scenes Here's where it really gets practical. I use ChatGPT to: Generate topic lists (hit or miss — but great for idea sparks) Help outline research and talking points Convert podcast transcripts into blog posts Create tailored thumbnails for each episode After recording, I run a transcription plugin in Audacity. Export it. Feed it to ChatGPT. It crafts the blog post that matches exactly what I said. Back in the day, making a thumbnail meant: Searching Creative Commons images Verifying licenses Editing in Photoshop Formatting text manually That could take an hour per episode. Now? Seconds. That alone is game-changing. Editing, Transcription, and Efficiency Sometimes the transcription plugin fails. When that happens, I use Descript, which has AI filters that can remove filler words like “um” and “like.” It's powerful. It costs money at scale. If the show budget explodes someday, that's one of the first upgrades I'd bring in. But even with free tools, the efficiency gain is massive. AI doesn't replace me. It removes friction. Fitness Tracking and TRT Logging This is where it gets interesting. I use ChatGPT to track my TRT injections — site rotation, dosage, symptoms. I log: 50mg testosterone left hip 25mg NPP ventral glute Symptoms, mood, energy levels Some days I forget where I'm supposed to inject next. I ask. It reviews my logs and tells me. It's not medical advice. It's structured journaling. And when I eventually see a rheumatologist for chronic fatigue and pain, I'll walk in with a detailed record of everything I've tried and how I felt. That's powerful leverage. DNA Analysis and Supplement Guessing You can download raw DNA data, convert it into a readable format, and upload it for analysis. You can ask: Is this supplement a good fit for my DNA? Do I have methylation issues? What should I avoid? Is it perfect? Probably not.Is it fun and insightful? Absolutely. AI is very good at pattern recognition and extrapolation. You just have to remember it's not a doctor. Final Thoughts AI isn't magic. It's leverage. It saves time. It expands creativity. It reduces friction. It helps organize chaos. You don't need to build an AI startup. But if you're not using these tools to streamline your life, your business, your health tracking, your creative output — you're leaving value on the table.

A new era begins! After 550 episodes as Podcast Talent Coach, Erik K. Johnson launches Influential Voices of Authority. This is a podcast designed for coaches, consultants, and experts ready to leverage their voice, message and podcast to build trust, attract premium clients and grow their impact.   00:00 "Becoming a Category of One" 03:08 "Podcasting for Profit and Authority" 06:24 "Mastering Influence and Creativity" 09:37 "Becoming an Influential Authority" 13:00 Podcast Success: Strategy & Mentorship   In this episode, Erik shares the story behind the show's transformation and what it truly means to build authority. Building it not just with content, but with context, magnetic personality, and storytelling. Erik's broadcasting journey started by accident, but his passion for creativity, connection, and helping others flourish has fueled decades of radio and podcasting success. Why settle for blending in? Erik explains why ads and sponsors create a ceiling and clutter, and how you can instead become a "category of one." He emphasizes that listeners come for your content, but stay for your context. This includes your unique stories, perspectives, and personality. Consistency is great, but intentional leadership is what turns your podcast into an authority engine.   Key insights from Erik: - **It's not about content—it's about context.** Your voice wrapped in story creates memorable experiences that build trust and lasting relationships. - **People buy your journey, not your six steps.** Magnetic personalities make others believe and inspire action by sharing real stories and authentic experiences. - **Authority isn't achieved by showing up; it's built on leadership and entertainment.** Listeners want to be entertained and moved, not lectured.   - **Three challenges for podcasters:** 1. Overcomplicating the process: Focus on context, not just content. 2. Lacking a strategy to turn listeners into clients: Erik promises interviews and systems to help you succeed. 3. Having no mentor or clear path: This podcast is your guide, with industry leaders ready to share their secrets.   Erik invites you to let him audit your podcast and discover where your authority positioning falls short. Visit www.PodcastTalentCoach.com/coaching and let Erik help you build your plan to become unforgettable.   **Next episode:** Tina Dietz of Twin Flames Studios joins Erik to explore how you can transform your podcast into a book, making your content easier to access, more impactful, and cementing your authority faster.   Get your podcast audit at www.PodcastTalentCoach.com/coaching.

Welcome to Food for Your Soul – a podcast for those who love in-depth Bible study and expository preaching. In this episode, we explore Mark 10:28-31 and Jesus' radical teaching on the cost of discipleship and the rewards that come with following Him. What does it really mean to "leave everything" to follow Jesus? And what exactly does He promise in return? Jesus doesn't sugarcoat the cost of discipleship, but He offers a 100-fold reward—an eternal family, spiritual blessings, and more. In this episode, you'll discover: The Cost of Discipleship: What must you forsake to follow Christ? The Profit of Discipleship: The unimaginable rewards Jesus promises. The Church Family: the Body of Christ If you enjoy the episode, please consider subscribing to the podcast and leaving a 5-stars rating. This helps others find the podcast. My sermons are the fruit of nearly 30 years of pastoral ministry, biblical counseling, formal seminary training, and a lifelong passion for God's Word. Since childhood, I've been drawn to the beauty and power of expository preaching—opening Scripture verse by verse and applying it to real life. After graduating from Moody Bible Institute, I spent the next 27 years serving as a youth pastor, senior pastor, church planter, and host of the Food For Your Soul radio broadcast. Along the way, I also earned a Master of Sacred Literature and a Doctor of Religious Studies. For more content from D. Richard Ferguson, visit TreasuringGod.com.

Episode 288 Pool Nation Podcast. Are you busy… or are you actually building a profitable pool service business? In this episode of the Pool Nation Podcast, Edgar, John, and Zac break down one of the biggest traps in the swimming pool industry: confusing being busy with being successful. As we head into peak pool season, many pool pros find themselves working longer hours, adding more pools, and filling every minute of the day — but still feeling overwhelmed, stressed, and underpaid. This episode dives deep into: • Why long hours don't equal profitability • How busyness hides skill gaps and financial problems • The dangerous cycle of “organized chaos” in pool companies • Why scaling without readiness leads to burnout • How to transition from technician to operator • The role of planning, pricing, and financial clarity in sustainable growth If you're a pool service business owner trying to grow, scale, or simply survive the busy season without burning out — this conversation is for you. Because readiness isn't about knowing more. It's about making better decisions before chaos hits. ⏱️ Episode Timestamps 00:00 – Welcome to the Pool Nation Podcast 01:00 – Why “Busy” Doesn't Mean Profitable 05:30 – Western & Southwest Pool Shows + Boot Camp Updates 08:45 – The $10,000 Pool Pro Challenge & Raypak AVIA Giveaway 12:00 – The “Busy Trap” in the Pool Industry 15:00 – Hustle vs. Structure: Why Long Hours Aren't the Answer 19:00 – How Busyness Masks Skill Gaps in Pool Service 22:00 – Stop Being a “Field Medic” – Fix Root Causes Instead 25:00 – The Illusion of Success in a Packed Schedule 28:00 – Why Adding More Pools Isn't Always the Solution 31:00 – Warning Signs You're Running in Organized Chaos 34:00 – Creating Space in the Day for Preventative Work 41:00 – Readiness vs. Reaction: Making Better Decisions 45:00 – Where Pool Businesses Get Stuck as They Grow 50:00 – Financial Readiness as a Competitive Advantage 56:00 – Final Thoughts: Work Smarter, Not Just Harder

In this episode of the Industry Spotlight, we dive into why used car success in 2026 is no longer just about the purchase price, but about the high-stakes ability to acquire and articulate a vehicle's complete story. Joining host Sam D'Arc is Doug Horner of General Sales Manager at Mercedes-Benz of North Olmsted and Tyler Astorg, Vice President Sales at iPacket to discuss how precision data—specifically knowing the exact options and trim levels—serves as a dealer's ultimate superpower. They explore the fine line between profit and peril, demonstrating how missing even the smallest detail in a vehicle's history or condition can make or break your market advantage. By leveraging full data sets to acquire cars at the correct competitive price and sharing that transparency with consumers, top-tier dealers are proving that the final 1% of effort in vehicle presentation is what truly secures the deal.
